Boy does this sound familiar to me. I've tossed or donated clothing many times (Stuff I can't wear due to gained weight or lost weight, etc.).
Ironically the one thing I have not tossed out are my ties. Some are broad (common style now) to thin (late 80's early 90's) and a few Disney Character ties that NO one can get anymore. The latter include Meeko the Raccoon; several Lion King; a Jungle Book tie (which I absolutely will NEVER part with) and a Halloween tie with several Disney Villains on it, including "Runnaway Brain" Mickey (That Mickey looks like he's got Rabies). And don't even THINK about touching my Fedora's or my Stetson cowboy hats that cover my balding head.
Suits... my first 3-piece suit in brown polyester (Yes... POLYESTER!!) --- Gone.
My second 3-piece suit from Patrick James, all wool --- Gone.
Several blue blazers (that I am now too big to wear, because I went from a 36 to a 42 Regular from better exercise and working out) ---- Gone.
Shoes out of style or worn down, but suitable for someone really down & out or a theater's wardrobe department ---- Gone.
My spring cleaning was yesterday though (see my post) an that's out of the way for another year.
